Can’t sign up without giving away fb or google info.

Easy to get stuck

When you're navigating through to various parts of the app, it easy to find yourself without a back button or a menu item to select. However I did find that the top section is where you swipe 'back' to see previous pages. Clever, but not too clear.
Wish the articles were more interesting, and the content more helpful without having to pay. Such as 'try a week of vinous for free before paying'.

Read and article recommending this App in maclife and thought I'd give it a try. You can't use the App unless you have an account. The problem is THESE IDIOTS DON'T LET YOU SET UP AN ACCOUNT! Who thought up that one? I suppose I could try the 'log in with Facebook' option but I'm not so stupid to give them access to my Facebook account. Sorry, I'll find something else. I'm even willing to pay to maintain some semblance of privacy.

Problem

It may be great, but I'll never know, because it makes you log in with either FaceBook or Google. No thanks.

This Vinous app is fantastic. Foremost, it gives mobile access to unparalleled wine reviews by the likes of Antonio Galloni as well as Vintage Charts that help you navigate vintages. It also lets you take a photo of a wine label and store it into a playlist where you can keep track of your favorite. The wine library on the app is expansive and the reviews are the best in the industry.

Would be great if app worked

In my first attempt to subscribe to this app for 3-months I went through the motions in AppStore, completed purchase, the app charged my credit card, the Vinous App said I didn't have a subscription. I tried again, again, again and it didn't work. Finally reached out to Vinous and Apple and got it to work.
The 3-month subscription came and went and I tried to renew. Same darn problem.
Once this thing works, the content is great. But come on guy! This is annoying!

No way to purchase a subscription in app?!?!

Downloaded the app and launched it expecting to be prompted to subscribe. Instead there is only an option to log in, with no option to subscribe. I even tried an incorrect login but that didn't bring up an option to subscribe either. What's the point?

Solid app.

Easy to navigate- review search is what I mainly use.

Subscription paid both says it won't restore

I bought the year subscription thru the app, credit card was charged but the app doesn't reflect the subscriptions as purchased. When I try to restore the subscription in the app it says I need to buy a subscription. When I go thru the buy process again it says I already have one and need to restore it. Then the app locks up and I have to shut down and restart.
I sent an email over a week ago for app support and received no response. So now am asking for a refund from the apple App Store.
Really nice customer experience - NOT!
